Hey, y’all. 🙂
First before I start with the hodgepodge…for any family members reading this…Mama B’s Dr visit last week was great. She doesn’t have a tumor or anything else scary. 🙂
And me? Well…I’m still alive.
Feeling better but still not 100%.
This week I did start cooking a little bit for the first time all month.
That looks awful but it turned out quite delicious. 🙂 A pot of pressure cooked short ribs.
Crushed pretzels / brownie batter / salted caramel.
Layered.
Swirled.
Baked 350*.
One tiny molten section in the middle. My fav. 🙂
This is a great idea for some salty / sweet / crunchy in one pan but for some reason about 25% of my pretzels were soggy while the rest of them were perfectly crisp. Have no idea why or how to fix it. It was all eaten though. 🙂
Knowing me y’all probably think the brownies were my favorite food from this week but you’d be wrong. 🙂 This was my fav. Again the pic looks off (and I seriously need to get back into the habit of taking pics because I forgot to get ‘after’ pics) but I made up a batch of icebox dough and used part of it to make a hamburger / cheese stuffed roll. It was the best. 🙂 And now I’ll use the rest of the dough for pizza.
Went out for Lent fish Friday. I had the grilled fish tacos. That’s a corn tortilla. Plus guac / salsa / sour cream.
Did y’all see this on Kelly & Michael this week? You put in your birth date and it tells you the number one song the week you were born and the week you were conceived.
Mine were Rod Stewart’s Maggie May (the week I was born…which I already knew) and Dawn’s Knock Three Times.
Sister B, I did yours and yours where Top of the World (the Carpenters) and Roberta Flack’s Killing Me Softly.
I think we can all agree I got the better songs. 😉
I did my whole family and Papa B’s birth song was Smoke Smoke Smoke that Cigarette. And for real I can imagine ’em all lighting up right there in hospital. Ick.
Oh and let’s see what else…
The most shocking thing this week?
The movie theater in my little town is showing 50 Shades.
What?
This is a town where far too many people here are your typical Sunday mornin’ Christians. Ya know…church on Sunday mornin’…horrible people Mon – Sat. Racist / sexist / judgmental / homophobic / basically all your ists and ics. A good portion probably think the segregated 50’s was Shangri-La.
They didn’t even show The Help in this town.
Yeah, seriously. Too much like looking in a mirror.
But 50 Shades? Well let’s all head on out for a girls night. And then hop on a church pew in the morning and pass judgment on everybody else.
Me and Mama B wanna go covertly take pics of all the hypocrites. 😉
Too much? 😉
Don’t worry ists and ics. I’m not gonna turn this space into a small town The Dirty. But oh how some of you temp me.
Anyway that’s all for today.
Have a good weekend. See y’all soon. 🙂
I’ll leave y’all with my birth week song. Which I actually love love loved long before I ever knew it was my birth week song. Check yours out and see if you felt the same way about yours. 🙂
